Which Sunburst Shutters San Diego Product Qualifies For The 2017 Energy Tax Credit?

Polywood® Shutter Insulating Systems qualify for the Federal Tax Credit under the category of “Insulating Products.” Polywood is specifically designed to reduce heat loss or gain in a home or building and meets the requirements established for insulating systems as set forth by the IRS and IECC.

How Much Is The 2017 Energy Tax Credit For Polywood Shutters?

Californians may be eligible for a tax credit for energy efficient window treatments of 10% of the cost, up to a maximum credit of $500. This credit is exclusive to Polywood Shutters installed between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017.

How Do Polywood Shutters Result In Energy Savings?

Polywood shutters are made from a synthetic material created with energy savings in mind. We included weather stripping on the vertical sides of the panel so that the shutters block out heat gain or loss when closed. No other plantation shutters in San Diego, CA has these these features!

Polywood shutters diminish airflow by up to 45%. They block temperature by 30 degrees. And they’re tested and found to improve the solar heat gain, R Value, and U Factor of any window. This results in your heating system not having to work quite as hard to sustain your home at a comfortable temperature - and substantial energy savings for you!
